SMART CITIES & COMMUNITIES
Cities and communities are faced with the challenge of improving the liveability and prosperity of their regions.
Smart technologies such as sensors and communications are providing new sources of data, information and insight.
As technology drives forward and we have the tools available to learn more about what is happening in our cities and communities in near real-time through implementing new systems the liveability and sustainability of our cities improves.
IoT in Smart Cities
The data captured allows cities and communities to respond to ever-changing situations, allocate resources wisely and plan for the future.
Furthermore, putting real-time data into the hands of the community and local businesses enables everyone to be more connected and make better decisions with the information that is available.
